Following the historic ruling in New York State allowing same sex couples to marry, slews of celebrities continue to tweet their support throughout the day. CNN anchors Piers Morgan and Wolf Blitzer gave their thoughts and spoke of a possible business venture: “@piersmorgan ‘Wolf Weddings’? RT @wolfblitzercnn: With gay marriage legal in NY.. might be good time to invest in wedding planning & related businesses.”
Fellow CNN TV show host and comedian Joy Behar also weighed in, offering some choice advice: “@joyvbehar If NY legalizes same sex marriage, I have just two words of advice: Pre. Nup. #NY4M #marriageequality #lbgt”
And of course movie star and comedian, Russel Brand offered his words: “@rustyrockets I'm in the Bermuda Triangle, enlightenment, UFO's, talking sharks, Gay Marriage- I'm ready for anything. #feelabitseasick”
I hope Russel Brand gets outta there sometime soon. Ha!
It is the dawn of a new era and Lady Gaga was “crying her eyes out” in celebration. As late Friday afternoon New York State Senators voted 33-29 in favor of legalizing same sex marriage in New York state. This ruling marks the end of a tiring struggle for same sex rights and equality for many persons and naturally a host of celebrities tweeted messages of excitement, elation and support for the historic marriage rights bill.
